Extended: Earn 10 mpd with Kris+ at over 100 restaurants in Sydney and Melbourne

Heading to Australia next month? You can continue to earn 10 mpd in addition to your credit card points at an expanded list of 66 restaurants in Sydney and 48 in Melbourne, with Kris+.
EXPIRED This article relates to an offer or promotion which has now expired.
 

Today is unfortunately the final day for 10 mpd earning at 42 restaurants in Singapore, with the Kris+ ‘Feast to Fly’ promotion, worth up to 14 mpd in total when you include the miles or points you’ll earn using your credit card for the payment itself.

Last month we noted how the same deal was actually also running at over 90 restaurants in Sydney and Melbourne too, great news for our Australia-based readers and those visiting those cities over the peak school holiday season.

That deal was also set to end today (30th June), but the good news in this case is that unlike in Singapore, the Aussie promotion has now been extended by a further month, and over 20 new merchants have joined the list in the meantime too.

The Kris+ ‘Feast to Fly’ promotion in Sydney and Melbourne has now been extended by a month, through t 31st July 2024.

“Extended by popular demand: From 3 May to 31 July, continue your foodie experience with Kris+ Feast to Fly.”

Additionally, the merchant list has grown from 93 to 114 in total, thanks to additional dining partners joining the platform in Australia.

On top of that, you can score 100 additional miles just for making your reservation in advance via Quandoo, though sadly it’s only an option for 4 out of the 114 participating restaurants.

All KrisPay miles earned from this promotion can be immediately (and instantly) converted into KrisFlyer miles, which is exactly what you should be doing with them, so do be sure to transfer straight away and in full after settling your bill using the app.

There are now a total of 66 bars, cafes and restaurants, with 82 outlets between them city-wide, participating in this extended ‘Feast to Fly’ deal for dining in Sydney anytime between now and 31st July 2024.

Here’s the full list of merchants seeing their earn rate hiked to 10 mpd, from their year-round rates of 1 mpd, 2 mpd or 3 mpd.

Additional discounts

Kris+ is also offering additional discounts at several of these dining, cafe and bar partners during this promotion.

These include discounted cash vouchers that you can purchase via the app in advance of your visit to offset the bill, with 10 mpd earning when you buy the voucher itself.

Fixed discounts like 10% off your bill or a complimentary dish or drink are also available at some merchants.

For a full list of deals, check your Kris+ app (be sure to switch to the Australia site).

Which card to use

Kris+ earn partners in Australia accept in-app payment via Apple Pay or Google Pay using Visa or Mastercard (but not American Express cards, which are only accepted via Kris+ in Singapore).

As you probably already know, with Kris+ you’ll earn KrisPay miles for your transaction (which you then can and should convert into KrisFlyer miles), on top of the usual points you’ll get when using your best credit card to make in-app payment.

Australian credit cards have rather lacklustre earn rates, but if you’re visiting Sydney or Melbourne here’s a list of Singapore-issued cards that should give you the best earn rate for Kris+ transactions at these merchants during the promotion (Australia Kris+ spend codes as online and FCY).

The following cards will earn at their bonus rate of between 3 mpd and 4 mpd, either for all Kris+ spend in Australia, or for merchants in the specific dining MCCs listed.

3 mpd On all FCY spend, with no cap, subject to S$2,000+ total card spend in the same statement month.

Don’t use your Citi Rewards card to make payment with Apple Pay or Google Pay on Kris+, since online transactions using this card specifically exclude mobile wallet payments and will therefore earn at the basic rate of 0.4 mpd.

Don’t forget to transfer straight to KrisFlyer miles

KrisPay miles earned through Kris+ can only be transferred to your KrisFlyer account within 7 days of the transaction. To do so, simply tap on the “Transfer to KrisFlyer” button which will appear on the miles earned confirmation screen or transaction details screen.

You can do so later (within 7 days), but why wait?

Remember that KrisPay miles earned per transaction can only be transferred to your account in their entirety. If you earned 100 KrisPay miles from a single Kris+ transaction, for example, the full 100 KrisPay miles must be transferred to your KrisFlyer account. If you have already spent some of your KrisPay miles earned, a partial transfer option is not available.

We therefore recommend transferring to KrisFlyer immediately following any Kris+ earning transaction, in case you either forget or make a mistake later.

100 extra miles with Quandoo

KrisFlyer recently launched a partnership with restaurant reservation portal Quandoo.

That’s good news because it means netting an additional 100 KrisFlyer miles just for booking and attending the reservation itself, but sadly it’s only possible at 4 of the 114 participating restaurants in the Kris+ 10 mpd Australia deal:

  • Le Monde (Sydney)
  • 3 Brothers on Chapel (Melbourne)
  • Belgian Beer Cafe (Melbourne)
  • Kan Eang By Thai Culinary (Melbourne)

Booking via Quandoo is a no-brainer if you’re thinking of dining at one of these restaurants between now and the end of July 2024, with the reservation miles plus the 10 mpd via Kris+ payment plus up to 4 mpd on your credit card potentially adding up to a serious stash.

For example, if you book a table between now and 31st July 2024 at Le Monde in Sydney via Quandoo (having linked your KrisFlyer account to your Quandoo account) and spend S$200 on dinner using your DBS WWMC card via Kris+, you’ll receive:

  • 100 KrisFlyer miles for attending the reservation
  • 2,000 KrisFlyer miles for payment via the Kris+ app
  • 800 KrisFlyer miles from your DBS Points for the payment itself

That’s a total of 2,900 KrisFlyer miles for a S$200 dinner – equivalent to nearly 15 mpd!



 


 

Summary

The latest Kris+ 10 mpd dining promotion at 42 restaurants across Singapore is sadly coming to an end today, but all is not lost for some of our readers.

There are over 100 bars, cafes and restaurants in Australia also participating in the ‘Feast to Fly’ 10 mpd promotion, and that’s been extended in those cities by an additional month, right through to 31st July 2024.

This could prove very useful if you’re based in Sydney or Melbourne, or you’re simply taking a trip to those cities in July.

10 mpd from this promotion comes in addition to the points you’ll earn on your credit card, for a total haul of 14 mpd at the top level, but even with a decent general spend card offering 2 mpd on FCY transactions, you can still net a respectable 12 mpd during this offer.

4 of these restaurants even offer pre-booking through Quandoo, for 100 additional KrisFlyer miles per attended reservation.

Remember to transfer your KrisPay miles immediately into the KrisFlyer programme after earning, since if they become partially used by mistake or you forget after 7 days, they’ll be stuck in the Kris+ app, where their value is dismal.
